Abstract

We report a new method for regulating monodispersity in the generation of single emulsions. The spacing between two consecutive emulsions during their generation is used to identify monodisperse and polydisperse regimes, with monodispersity having a size dispersion of <9% as an upper limit. A theoretical fit to our data is also presented. Moreover, a phase diagram of drop diameter as a function of inner and outer fluid flow rates indicates optimal flow parameters for the production of monodisperse drops. Our findings emphasize the robustness of using droplet spacing as a controlled parameter in regulating monodispersity, despite geometric differences in microfluidic devices.

期刊介绍： Langmuir is an interdisciplinary journal publishing articles in the following subject categories: Colloids: surfactants and self-assembly, dispersions, emulsions, foams Interfaces: adsorption, reactions, films, forces Biological Interfaces: biocolloids, biomolecular and biomimetic materials Materials: nano- and mesostructured materials, polymers, gels, liquid crystals Electrochemistry: interfacial charge transfer, charge transport, electrocatalysis, electrokinetic phenomena, bioelectrochemistry Devices and Applications: sensors, fluidics, patterning, catalysis, photonic crystals However, when high-impact, original work is submitted that does not fit within the above categories, decisions to accept or decline such papers will be based on one criteria: What Would Irving Do? Langmuir ranks #2 in citations out of 136 journals in the category of Physical Chemistry with 113,157 total citations. The journal received an Impact Factor of 4.384*. This journal is also indexed in the categories of Materials Science (ranked #1) and Multidisciplinary Chemistry (ranked #5).
